She assists leaders and teams in identifying and taking responsibility for the gifts they have to contribute as well as the habitual, reactive behaviors that hold them back. With a view to unleashing sustainable high performance, Sandra supports executives to learn to lead AS a team –  amplifying the conditions, behaviors and practices that support constructive, vibrant, generative team and organizational leadership, skillful at achieving results that matter.

Sandra’s coaching and teaching style is perceptive, intuitive, engaging and focused on the practical. She is an enthusiastic champion of optimizing personal fulfillment and performance as well as collective team achievement and especially loves partnering with socially conscious organizations whose mission is to positively impact all their stakeholders and the world.

Sandra is inspired to ‘leave the world a more beautiful place than she found it’. She sees that beauty in leaders from all walks of life who are alive with purpose. Beyond her work with executives and teams, Sandra is dedicated to igniting change-makers of all kinds to unleash their ‘Medicine’ – the contribution they are uniquely designed to make in the world.

I have found working with Sandra both insightful and stimulating. She cuts through the clutter and deals with the heart of the matter. She is not afraid to challenge and question, yet she’s supportive and easy to talk to. I always look forward to my time with her and have no doubt the coaching has had an impact on business performance.

Sandra is extremely intelligent and empathetic. She gained my confidence and respect very quickly – I’m usually far more suspicious. I have huge respect for Sandra and hope we can enjoy a professional and personal relationship in the future.
